I thougth about Buddhism of my daily life. I wrote 5 examples and explained why I think so.
- Before I eat something, I say "Itadakimasu". It is for giving thanks to food, nature, our parents and people who made it.
- I visit a grave about 5 times a year for accounting of my daily life.
- When someone die, we perform the last offices. It is for hoping someones soul rest in Heaven.
- I have the Bon Festival. When this term, I make an offering to Buddhist memorial tablet for greeting our ancestry soul.
- I have a Syobu bath every 5th may. The stem and leaf of iris is put in the bath, and wish our health.
